Montmartre from Eiffel Tower level 2
Watercolour sketch

In 2013 I took my youngest grandchild,
Rachel, who is Phil and Dan’s little sister on a Road Scholar trip to Paris.
This sketch and the Painting I’ll post in a few days were done from pictures I
took the day we went up the Eiffel Tower.
On our first day, we explored Montmartre, touching
the hand of the original ‘Passe-muraille’ -- the Man Who Walked through Walls, climbing
all the way up to Basilica du Sacré-Coeur and lunching in the square where artists have congregated for more
than a hundred years. In fact dozens of them were painting or sketching en
plein air while we were there.
